AUTUMN HEALING JOURNEY
Oct 19, 2023 - Oct 23, 2023
2023 is currently sold out
A journey into your heart, mind, and soul.
A journey in devotion to you.
Women are being asked to rise up in their feminine power. We are being asked to come together and lead. In my opinion, we are already leaders, we already have power, and we have already risen up. But not in a way that has been helpful to humanity as a whole. Instead, I am asking women to humble themselves and learn to speak to their hopes and despairs and challenges to themselves and each other in a different kind of way. In a way that honors and respects one another and informs us of the ways we have gotten in our own way as well as the ways of each other. This is the practice. It requires a slowing down, a deeper connection to the earth, a vulnerability with each other and a willingness to open your heart.
“Every woman who heals herself, heals all the women who came before her and all the women who come after her.””
Details
This year our journey will be held at the Gaia Villa Joshua Tree Retreat. It is a beautiful space set against the desert valley called Joshua Tree, CA. Every year I am lead to a new place to host Autumn Healing Journey, and this year I was lead to Joshua Tree. I love the desert land so much. It feels incredibly ancient to me and feels as though it holds deep healing from a place of magic and wonder. At night, the stars feel so close, it helps you remember you are part of a much bigger story than your own. The sunrise and sunset of each day is pure beauty and in the desert…the moon rises too.
As soon as we look at the sky, breathe in the air, and plant our feet on the soil of the earth we find a sense of connection that deeply heals and brings us back to what is truly important.
There will be time and space to soak up the surroundings and hike/walk the land.

The Food
A huge part of this retreat experience is the food because a huge part of healing is in the healing of our bodies. We will be fed high quality nourishing foods that are in season and free of gluten and refined sugar. Clean and pure foods help us to focus and find more clarity in our mind space. We are able to let go easier and see where we are going.
Our journey together includes all the meals. We will be nourished by Giovanna Garcia, my favorite chef.
“Autumn is the time when the cycle that began in the spring, reaches completion. The fruit is harvested, things are cleared away, so that space can be made for a new beginning. It is important in this season to watch your balances and to give yourself time for settlement and reflection. You naturally go through a process of clearing out and it is wise not to make any important decisions.”
-Petra Ummenthun

Welcome home. I’m Shauna Lay
I’m an embodiment expert + certified Women's Empowerment Coach here to help you lean into your desires and build a life you truly love.
I teach powerful and courageous women the importance of true acceptance and connection to the self and to others. As your coach, I’ll show you that a thriving work and family life – real happiness – begins with steady introspection.
I’ll stand beside you and allow you to be YOU. Through our work together, we will honor your life with all of its colors, and propel you into honest communication with yourself + others.
Think of our work together like spilling out your purse on the kitchen table. We’re going to sift through that big messy pile, get rid of all the scraps of receipts and crumbs, put back the things that are already working, and pick up the individual pieces that need to be changed. Nothing goes back into the bag that doesn’t serve you in creating the life of your dreams.
In this hectic life, it’s easy to forget who you are and what you are meant for. My job is to walk beside you and help you remember.
“She is openly listening, she is responsibly sharing, she is respectfully giving, she is courageously receiving. She is here.”
